Which acid is weaker HNO3 or HCO3?

HCO3 (bicarbonate) is weaker than HNO3 (nitric acid). Bicarbonate is a weak acid, while nitric acid is a strong acid. This means that nitric acid completely ionizes in water, while bicarbonate only partially ionizes.


Is sulfuric acid and nitric acid strong or weak acids in aqueous solution?

Sulfuric acid and nitric acid are strong acids in aqueous solutions. They both dissociate almost completely into ions when dissolved in water, resulting in a high concentration of hydronium ions, making them strong acids.
